Summary
Game Description
Call of Duty: World at War is a first-person shooter and the latest installment in the Call of Duty video game series for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, PlayStation 2, DS, and PC. Moving back from the modern setting of CoD4, World at War is set in the Pacific theater and Eastern front of World War II. The violence is off the charts: this is a vision of World War II you've never seen before! Gone are gritty gray colors and sanitized violence. In its place are vibrant hues, gushing gore, and intense language. World at War will also expand upon Call of Duty 4's award-winning online multiplayer with new modes, drivable vehicles, and a host of lethal WWII-era weapons (including a flamethrower, the Tommy gun, and the world's first true assault rifle).

OMFG
This is infact the best COD to date. From the very first mission to the last you will be on your toes in single player. things i have never seen or dreamed of b4. The multiplayer believe it or not has actually stepped up a notch from cod4. it has more perks, a huge variety of weapons, tighter controls and probably the most damn fun i've ever had.

the best
I beleve that this is the best call of duty ever. Enyone that dose not owen this game should defnetly get it becuse it has one of the best online play I have seen in a long time. And the story bord is the best of all the Call of Duty's out ther, but one of the cons is that the controls are complected.

Review:
Call of Duty: World at War - PS3
For all the talk about how first-person shooters have milked World War II dry, the conflict's sheer battlefield variety and tactical scope make it a natural home for the genre. World at War doesn't innovate with quite the ambitious vigor of Call of Duty 4, and it falters a little on the single-player front, but it's every bit as energizing where it matters most.
THE BOTTOM LINE: Developer Treyarch did a fantastic job of not reinventing the wheel with World at War. Rather, they took the best elements of Modern Warfare and expanded upon them. The end product is a thrilling experience that injects some of the visceral punch back into World War II. The single-player mode is short but sweet and it unlocks the awesome Nazi Zombies mode but the true strength of WaW is the compelling multiplayer, which should have you huddled in the virtual trenches for a long time to come. -
